Karenia brevis (red tide) blooms occur almost annually along the coast of southwest Florida, where they adversely affect water quality, wildlife, ecology, public health, and economic activity. What drives these blooms? Is there anything we can do about them?
We know that red tide blooms develop naturally in the Gulf of Mexico, and we’ve long suspected that human activity may intensify blooms once they arrive on the coast, since coastal waters are artificially enriched with nutrients.

I watched all of American Horror Stories on Sunday, the Lord's day, and I must say it made me feel yucky in a way AHS seldom but sometimes makes me feel yucky, but for almost the whole time. Some moments of genius but mostly I never understood why it was happening & still don't
I really liked the grindhouse one and the hype house one and I have been saying "Bro means 'brother'!" pretty regularly. but the murder house ones either tried too hard (#3) or not hard enough (#1 & #2). It all suffered from the stylish #RedTide binge that preceded it maybe
Because MAN could I watch 13 episodes of that. Just gorgeous

aerosolized #dinoglagellate toxin due to inhalation of dinoflagellate toxin #brevetoxin related to #redtide. Generally inhaled via wave action during #algalbloom where Karenia brevis toxin is inhaled and exposed to eyes
Illness in mild & short. Steamed crabs are low risk inthis case given consumed 3d earlier. DDx: ciguatera produces neurologic features, IC 30min-36hrs.More severe & pulmonary sx are atypical. Chinese restaurant: MSG could cause bronchospasm IC 5-30min though
